I’m a lot of things really…. professionally right now I’m an all-round computer troubleshooter at Coonabarabran High School, but as often as not I’ve been a writer and editor for various publications and media groups.

The broadest explanation for my whole career is that I work with computers, both technically and creatively, and help other people do the same.

After growing up in suburban Sydney and largely living there until 2010, I now live with my family in Coonabarabran, a smallish town in central western NSW. Country life is a new thing for me, but a good thing, so far.

My wonderful wife Sallie comes from this district, and yes, she did help convince me to move here. My sons Will, Alex and Lachlan are slowly becoming country kids, and baby Ben is getting used to the noise of such a big family… by generating even more of it himself!
